Detailed Introduction

Alexandria Children's Dentistry is a specialized pediatric dental clinic located in Alexandria, Virginia, with two convenient locations in Landmark and Del Ray. The practice is dedicated to providing exceptional dental care to infants, children, adolescents, and individuals with special needs. Their core mission revolves around establishing a positive "dental home" where children feel comfortable, happy, and safe during their visits. The clinic emphasizes a comforting, caring, and fun environment, utilizing pleasant, non-frightening language to describe treatments and creating an atmosphere that eases anxieties. This commitment extends to features like play areas in the waiting room, touchscreen games, and ceiling-mounted TVs with Netflix above the dental chairs, all designed to make the experience enjoyable for young patients. Led by Dr. Angela Austin, Alexandria Children's Dentistry offers a comprehensive range of pediatric dental services. These include routine dental cleanings and exams, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants for preventive care. For restorative needs, they provide tooth-colored fillings, stainless-steel crowns for back teeth (and cosmetic tooth-colored crowns for front teeth), and extractions when necessary. They also address concerns like tooth decay, gum issues (gingivitis), and provide guidance on proper oral hygiene habits, including brushing and flossing techniques from the eruption of the first tooth. The clinic's approach focuses on educating both children and parents about maintaining optimal oral health, stressing the importance of regular checkups every six months. They are committed to clinical excellence and are supported by a warm, friendly, and knowledgeable team dedicated to making each patient's experience as comfortable and positive as possible. The practice values building long-term relationships with families and ensuring children develop a positive relationship with dental care from a young age.

Ok, the dentists have been fine, HOWEVER, pro-tip: this office is not in-network for the same insurance companies that the Del Ray office is in-network for. **And no one there will tell you this** Literally, I thought my husband just had terrible insurance. I got a nearly-$3000 estimate for taking care of cavities for two of my kids. My husband mentioned it to one of his colleagues who said that seemed extremely high since he had the same procedure done for $100. We had to download the insurance plan, make a spreadsheet, call the insurance company asking about coverage for the codes, I brought my spreadsheet to the office to ask what was up and they were all like, huh, I don't know, we don't know why we're listed on your insurance's website we're not in-network, I felt like I was going crazy. .

. . Anyway, I don't even know how it dawned on me that if I go to the other office, it would change the calculations. I was able to reschedule part of the dental work for the Del Ray office and my bill came down $1500. I still overpaid by about $500 for the first part of the dental work, but we had time constraints and had to go through with it. Live and learn.

Also, the prices are just different. I paid $152 for Nitrous Oxide in this office and $52 in the Del Ray office. Is there a $100 nitrous tax in Fairfax County? Who knows! Anyway, I hope this saves someone some money.

We've been coming to this dental office since my son was 1, and now at 6, we couldn't be happier. Every visit feels personalized, with the staff treating us with warmth, care, and concern for his well-being. The team’s gentle and patient approach always makes each appointment a positive experience.

We highly recommend this office to any family looking for a place where both kids and parents feel valued.

My 3 and 5 years old loves the dentist thanks to this office! As a mother that is always looking for the best daycare, schools, activities and pediatrician, I am so happy we found this place. We felt welcomed from the beginning. The front desk was so kind and made the process smooth.

My kids were so excited to play on the ipad and the interactive virtual floor game was such a fun surprise!! The kiddos were so excited to be seen! The clinical team did an amazing job, explaining everything to my kids but also keeping us parents informed of things we can improve at home. We have found the dental home for our children and can see the love and care that they have towards kids. My kids have not stopped talking about going back for more goodies and to get their teeth brushed again! Thank you team, this meant so much to us and we look forward to their next visit!
